Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيٌّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، كَانَ عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ يُحَدِّثُهُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ عِنْدَهُ صَرْفٌ فَقَالَ طَلْحَةُ أَنَا حَتَّى يَجِيءَ خَازِنُنَا مِنَ الْغَابَةِ‏.‏ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ هُوَ الَّذِي حَفِظْنَاهُ مِنَ الزُّهْرِيِّ لَيْسَ فِيهِ زِيَادَةٌ‏.‏ فَقَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مَالِكُ بْنُ أَوْسٍ سَمِعَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يُخْبِرُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ الذَّهَبُ بِالذَّهَبِ رِبًا إِلاَّ هَاءَ وَهَاءَ، وَالْبُرُّ بِالْبُرِّ رِبًا إِلاَّ هَاءَ وَهَاءَ، وَالتَّمْرُ بِالتَّمْرِ رِبًا إِلاَّ هَاءَ وَهَاءَ، وَالشَّعِيرُ بِالشَّعِيرِ رِبًا إِلاَّ هَاءَ وَهَاءَ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Ali narrated to us: Sufyan narrated to us. Amr ibn Dinar used to narrate to him from al-Zuhri, from Malik ibn Aws, that Malik said, “Who has some change?” Talha said, “I will, once our treasurer comes from al-Ghaba.” Sufyan said: This is what we memorized from al-Zuhri, without any addition. He then said: Malik ibn Aws told me that he heard Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, report from the Messenger of Allah: “Gold for gold is usury unless it is hand to hand; wheat for wheat is usury unless it is hand to hand; dates for dates is usury unless it is hand to hand; and barley for barley is usury unless it is hand to hand.”
